Guest guest Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 I thought this was interesting information to share... Be Well, Misty http://www..com Tell Pediatric Dentists to Say NO to Coca Cola Money From (CSPI) The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) has entered a partnership with Coca-Cola for $1 million. The academy is dedicated to improving the health of children's teeth, while Coke is dedicated to selling a product that contributes to tooth decay and obesity. With this partnership, the AAPD is, in effect, a captive of Coca-Cola, making it extremely unlikely that the academy will take positions antagonistic to the company, like opposing soft-drink machines in schools. Tell the AAPD leadership to end this partnership and say no to Coke money!

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2003 Report Share Posted March 16, 2003 Thanks, Misty. I had not heard of this. It really IS too bad when money comes first and why you are in the profession comes a dead last.
